INTERMITTENT DELAY MITIGATION FOR REMOTE VEHICLE OPERATION

Method and apparatus are disclosed for mitigating issues for a vehicle executing a remote vehicle operation, wherein there is a communication delay between the vehicle and a remote computing device providing control. An example vehicle includes a communication system, an autonomy unit for performing a remote vehicle operation, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a remote vehicle operation control signal via the communication system from a remote computing device. The processor is also configured to determine a delay corresponding to the control signal. And the processor is further configured to modify the remote vehicle operation responsive to determining that the delay rises above a delay threshold at a threshold rate.
